The Nyesom Wike-backed Peoples Democratic Party National Working Committee has denied any involvement in the purported alliance or political gathering involving the Allied Peoples Movement in Ibadan, Oyo State, describing the event as misleading and unauthorised. PDP National Publicity Secretary, Jungudo Mohammed, speaking on behalf of the Abdulrahman Mohammed-led National Working Committee, outlined this while addressing newsmen in Abuja on Thursday. He stressed that the party is not part of any coalition, agreement, or arrangement with the APM or any other political group. He outlined, “We have called this press briefing to address the misleading narratives and deliberate falsehoods being circulated concerning the social gathering scheduled to be held today in Ibadan under the guise of an alliance between the Peoples Democratic Party and the Allied Peoples Movement.

“Let us state clearly and unequivocally that the PDP is not part of any alliance, coalition, agreement, or political arrangement with the Allied Peoples Movement or any other political party regarding this gathering or any related political activity. Any person or group claiming to be acting on behalf of the PDP in connection with this event is doing so without the knowledge, approval, consent, or authority of the party. “What is being presented to Nigerians as a political alliance is nothing more than another desperate attempt by Governor Seyi Makinde and his associates to mislead the public and manufacture a false impression of political relevance and support. “Governor Makinde must stop attempting to camouflage.

His attempts to destroy the PDP have finally been exposed, and his agenda has fallen flat. “It is unfortunate that in recent times Governor Makinde and others have continued to sponsor media attacks and propaganda aimed at deliberately distorting and misrepresenting the Supreme Court judgment in order to create confusion within the party and among Nigerians.
